How many of the models are impacted? Do you have any idea?

This implements the mechanism. That is complete. Just need to change the translation tool to be able to translate the tooltips and the depracation reason.

However, deprecating a parameter is some work. Besides editing the xwd, you need to adapt the model as well.

This really helps understand what you talked about yesterday. It looks like a good approach. A lot of work still remains though?

Hi,

Just to show what the new deprecation and flash-only flags can do:

1. Deprecation of optional parameters is done by adding the following to a parameter: deprecated="Reason for deprecation". For now it will only work properly for optional parameters, because you cannot get rid of the standard parameters, but we may decided to change that. See src/Nottingham/wizards/en-GB/textVideo.xwd for an example.

2. Tooltips for optional parameters. Just add tooltip="Enter the tooltip" to a parameter. See src/Nottingham/wizards/en-GB/textVideo.xwd for an example.

3. Deprecated page type. Just add deprecated="Reason for deprecation" to the page. See src/Nottingham/wizards/en-GB/mapStraction.xwd for an example.

4. Mark flashonly parameters. Just add flashonly="true" to a parameter. See src/Nottingham/wizards/en-GB/basic.xwd for an example.
